The Little Things...

Life, as we all know, can be full of hundreds of little moments that make you smile.
Sometimes you will find that you can't help but enjoy them for a while, and I've gone through a few that I thought were worthy to share.

I'll open with a story. I almost wish I could say I'm opening with a joke.


There are many things I love about pictures.

They can tell stories, evoke emotion and even inspire.

A picture, or rather a series of pictures I saw today simply made me stop in wonderment and awe of the mental capacity of people.

I will spare the trouble it would take to take the pictures, and edit them to protect the morons involved, but I will narrate:

Once upon a time, I was looking through a Facebook album of a friend who will remain unnamed to protect the ignorant, and I came across a set of pictures. The first one is a picture of one of my friend's friends at a party. There is a blurry spot caused by a smudge on the lens of the camera in a relatively inconspicuous part of the photo.

The next picture is a close up of my friend and her friend, and this time the part of the lens with the smudge is over her forehead, and the picture is captioned "there was a ghost in the pic i sweaR."

The picture following had a big blurry spot in the same part of the photo, and it was captioned "see !"

When captioning pictures, she had evidently resigned to the fact of a paranormal presence, and the title of the next photo was innocuous.
A friend of hers, a sleuth of epic proportions, commented "Y is there a blur all over [her]?!!!"
My intellectual friend replies.
"its a ghost! lol im really not sure!"

Sometimes I think that the world will simply implode when these people enter the real world.


Continuing on my picture topic, I have some pictures I took on the way home from Tennessee.

They made me smile, and I hope they will do the same for you.

Yes, that would be a stop sign.

And the sign next to it?

Yup.

A sign with a picture of a stop sign, and an arrow pointing to the stop sign.

I don't think I need to put anything here.

This is the arrangement of signs at a Kentucky rest area.

I didn't even have to jockey around to get a angle to line up the contradictory signs.

I was driving the car, and they both point down the same road.

Life makes me smile.
